Providing a Connection
The University of Wisconsin-Green Bay's Employee Assistance program (EAP) is a confidential,
work place based Employee Assistance Program. The program is designed to assist in the prevention,
early identification and resolution of personal issues which may affect both an employee's sense
of well being and their ability to effectively carry out their work responsibilities. Examples
of issues which the EAP might be helpful with are health, marital, family, financial, alcohol and
other drug, emotional, stress and other personal concerns.
Program Description
EAP services are provided through the Counseling and Health Center by Licensed Professional
Counselors. Services provided are:
- Confidential support and short term consultation and referral.
- Referrals for assessment, diagnosis treatment and other assistance.
- Consultation and training to staff, supervisors and other personnel in the identification and resolution of work related issues.
- Prevention and wellness education for employees.
Self-Referral
Employees and/or family members may consult with the EAP by contacting the Counseling and Health
Center. Consultation can be in person or over the telephone. If employees want to consult with the
EAP during work time they will be allowed a reasonable amount of time without loss of pay for such
assistance. However, they must arrange with their supervisor for time away from their workstation
in accordance with the operating procedures that have been established for their work units.
Employees are not required to use sick leave, vacation, or holiday time to cover the contact with
the EAP. Employees may elect to contact the EAP during break times and lunch periods, as operating
procedures permit.
Consultation
Employees, supervisors and union stewards may contact the EAP as a resource in resolving workplace
performance and/or other issues.
